Minimal art, minimalism in visual art<\/h3>[vc_column_text color=”none” tooltip_color=”color1″ tooltip_text_color=”color3″]Minimalism in the arts began in post\u2013World War II Western Art, most strongly with American visual arts in the 1960s and early 1970s. Prominent artists associated with minimalism include Donald Judd, John McCracken, Agnes Martin, Dan Flavin, Robert Morris, Anne Truitt, and Frank Stella.

“In the visual arts and music, minimalism is a style that uses pared-down design elements.”Unknown<\/cite><\/blockquote>
<\/div>[vc_column_text color=”none” tooltip_color=”color1″ tooltip_text_color=”color3″]Minimalism in music features repetition and iteration such as those of the compositions of La Monte Young, Terry Riley, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and John Adams. Minimalist compositions are sometimes known as systems music. The term “minimalist” often colloquially refers to anything that is spare or stripped to its essentials. It has also been used to describe the plays and novels of Samuel Beckett, the films of Robert Bresson, the stories of Raymond Carver, and the automobile designs of Colin Chapman. The word was first used in English in the early 20th century to describe “a 1913 composition by the Russian painter Kasimir Malevich of a black square on a white ground”.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
